About

Go beyond the typical Batu Caves visit with this immersive cultural experience. Begin with a batik painting workshop, where you’ll create your own colorful design and keep it as a one-of-a-kind souvenir.

Next, head to Batu Caves for a highlight experience: a sari try-on session. Dressed in vibrant traditional attire, capture stunning photos on the rainbow-colored steps and in front of the towering golden Murugan statue. Your guide will share fascinating stories about Hindu mythology as you explore the cave temples.

End the tour on a sweet note with traditional Indian snacks and Malaysia’s famous pulled tea, teh tarik.

This half-day adventure blends culture, creativity, and spirituality, making it one of the most unique Batu Caves tours in Kuala Lumpur.
